Stephen joined Pareto Shipbrokers Ltd from Clarksons Dubai where he worked as a shipbroker specialising in the Middle East and Indian tanker markets. His time spent in the Middle East helped him build up a wealth of local knowledge and put him in good stead to deal with clients on an international level.

In October 2009 he repatriated to the UK and continued his career with Pareto Shipbrokers Ltd. This was a great opportunity for him to become involved in the offshore shipping market. Stephen is based at the Guildford office where he works closely with the local team and also his colleagues in Aberdeen. He is equipped with a Bachelors degree in Business Management from the University of Leeds. 

Stephen is a keen sportsman who enjoys partaking in a wide range of sports especially playing for his local rugby team Alton RFC.
